"If you don't like something change it; if you can't change it, change the way you think about it."After reading this quote, I calmed down so much more. Things happen in life that you can't change, but thats no reason to shut out the world and to continue worrying because there are some things you simply can not control. When you do come across something like that, you need to just switch the way you think about it rather then stress over it. Instead of sitting in my room and missing class because I'm simply not used to going to class, why not go to class and try and look at things from a completely different perspective. Rather than get frustrated with the annoying lines for food and the lack of variety at neubig (especially on the ****ing weekends) why not open my taste buds to a new world and try something new.
Change is going to occur no matter what, and there is NOTHING anyone can do about it. So a new alternative to worrying about change, and not wanting it to happen, is letting it happen and looking at it from a completely different standpoint. Taking the negatives in life and creating positives. Everything happens for a reason, and we can't all be wanting to go back to childhood when our only issue was who got the last cookie. Things are changing and its just something everyone needs to accept, learn and grow from.

I know this one is from way back in September, but I thought it was a good topic to go back and re read on. With this being the last week of classes, all I want is change and to get the heck out of Cortland and go back home and relax. This year has been full of so much change for me, and a lot of it was bad. A close friend from home passed away, my parents are separating, its been pretty shitty. But after reading your quote you put up there you rethink things. In the end we'll all be okay, it just takes some thought and some convincing.
